White's Boots
-
@tod:
What I really like about these is that the block heel is flush with the boot, whereas so often the White's block overhangs so far off the back… Was this a special request? Just luck? A different sole than original?
It's what I'd like on the pair I am ordering soon...
These were resoled by a cobbler in NY, so indeed a completey different sole from the one White's uses.

Does anybody have any experience in either the White's Cougar(northwest last) and White's Smoke Jumper(semi-dress last) on either the Vibram 2021/4014 sole?
I'm specifically interested in the arch support provided by the northwest last and/or Smoke Jumper(BH) with a Vibram 2021/4014 sole. Also, how the arch support fares with a wedge sole as opposed to the same last but with a cuban heel.
I currently have a Bounty Hunter, so Smoke Jumper w/ semi-dress last, but with a Vibram half composition sole. I love the arch support the boots provide and am interested in picking up another pair, only with a vibram 2021/4014 sole.
Thanks

Reveived my pair of White's Semi Dress in Horsehide a couple of days ago.
I've worn quality boots for a long time, but these are simply amazing! Everything that has been written in these forums made me pull the trigger and I could not be more satisfied.
Pics will be up when I get time.

WHITE's SmokeJumper R/O: no Celastic toe reinforcement
Ironically, [in my experience] the smoothest & most comfortable way to wear leather is a rough-out version__ single layer [ie, no lining, just sock between skins]. awesome 2nd skin feeling when sized right. .. & your foot literally slides in/out like it's buttered
Unconditioned_ fresh out of the box, no Celastic toe
Dubbed w/Obenauf LP
NOW
BI or anyone - love this look - is this standard smoke-jumper last? and single or double sole (looks like single but hard to tell)? I like the soft toe, no liner.

Hi Alex, I ordered a pair in January, almost the same. What was the wait for yours?
